Charlene HawleyThis picture is exactly how I will remember Danny always with a big smile and manipulating with his eyes!!! We worked together for years with the best group of people, who loved going to work! He was a mental health tech and could always talk people down with his sense of humor and smile. He loved to have fun with groups of people! I will miss him, but happy he is at peace, without pain, and enjoying time with his Dad and Brother. Luv you guy and best to family! Char

Mark HeinzenMy sincerest condolences to family and friends. Danny and I grew up together and played tons of baseball, swam in pools and Lake Michigan, jammed to Beatle tunes, climbed trees in the Cemetery and chased lots of girls! Danny never had an enemy in the world. RIP my friend! Keep watching those Cubs games!
